Preliminary Study on Solid State Fermentation of Monascus Purpureus for Pigment Production in 2.3 L Stirred Drum Bioreactor

Monascus sp. are well known as natural colorant producer in food industries. Several studies has been conducted to economically cultivate the Monascus sp. using solid state fermentation (SSF), however, the potential of using strirred drum bioreactor in SSF for Monascus sp. cultivation are relatively...
